Matthew 21:17-21 Modern English Version (MEV)

17. And He left them and went out of the city into Bethany, and He lodged there.

18. Now in the morning as He returned to the city, He became hungry.

19. When He saw a fig tree by the road, He went to it but found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, “Let no fruit ever grow on you again.” Immediately the fig tree withered away.

20. When the disciples saw it, they were amazed, saying, “How did the fig tree wither away instantly?”

21. Jesus answered them, “Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also, if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed, and be thrown into the sea,’ it will be done.
